Bloodbath formed in 1998 during one evening when friends Mikael Åkerfeldt, Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse, and Dan Swanö, had the idea to play death metal in the realm of Entombed mixed with some of the US Florida death metal scene bands. Quite simply, Bloodbath was born out of this shared admiration for quality death metal in its old fashion combined with a new sound.
